A906 pair

[DADoES]

Coppertone. Seller says the washer leaked once recently, from the right side. They got new wood flooring, so she's leery of it. Her usual repairman gave an estimate, but instead of fixing it first, she decided to drop the asking price by $50. $150 for the pair. She isn't "showing" them until Saturday and unfortunately several people are already in line for a look. Sge said they've always been kept indoors, so are in excellent condition.

Wish me luck.

Coppertone and 906

Bring me the smelling salts I just fainted

The closest I could get is white

 

[DADoES]

I'm hoping the color will put off the other lookers, since it's so dated.

WOW, now THAT would be a score!!

Anyone know the production totals for 906's?

I called the seller, offered the original price she had in mind if she'd give me first-choice at them, and if the machines are in as good condition as she says. No answer, left a message. No response yet.

If indeed they are A906's, offer more than the original asking price to get her attention.

I wouldn't be too concerned about the small leak, it's probably easily found and repaired, many parts are still available.

The 906 all pushbutton machines are the most rare and just imagine what they look like in coppertone!!

A906s are what Granny Clampet had...

I recently watched one of the first color episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies and they frequently did the shots in the kitchen where you could clearly see what were A906 models in the laundry room portion of the set. Coppertone too, IIRC...

Good luck Glenn!!! Go for it...always a good sign when a vintage TOL machine pops up in Texas!!!

 

[DADoES]

She called back, said I can come take a look tomorrow evening. She's still using them, has a new MAYTAG pair ordered but it doesn't arrive until next week.

Washer

It's a done deal, barring any natural disasters. I don't take possession until next week, after her replacement set arrives.

Sorry, no pics of the interiors. The washer interior is in great shape, even the filter and dispenser cup are immaculate. Is there supposed to be a tub light? If so, it's burned out.

Note -- pics are at the seller's house.
